When I was much younger, like still adolescent, I often had thoughts about not looking like how I felt I looked. In hindsight, I think that was mostly some insecurity and not comfortable yet with who I was. I was also somewhat overweight back then, right up until the year I got out of college, and my self-confidence was compromised by my feelings about being overweight. Then when I lost that weight I got all pumped up and positively psyched about my "new look" and I rode that positive wave for many years.
Now adays, I'm mostly happy with who I am and I usually look at myself and think I look like me/like how I feel. An occasional exception...I would like to loose a few pounds again and sometimes I notice that more than at other times. I recently decided to join the local health club which I'll do this week and I plan to get in better shape than I've been in many many years.
